    ohtsu pro wedge?

    Are these a good everyday tire? Or are they more for dunes and sand?

    Made for drag, snow, and sand.
    Forward traction they hook up great but wear quickly on anything but snow/sand and they like to push forward making turning tougher.

    Don't ruin those Ohtsu tires on asphalt, if they are NOS you should be able to sell them and buy some street tires.

    Yeah I just saw the "Brand New pair of" part of his post. Dont you dare run those on asphalt. Throw em on ebay, get big bank for them, and buy some street/bald tires

    What people are willing to pay...

    There are a set lightly used pro wedgies on there (ebay) now (on rims) for like $70 and $35 or so shipping and they've been there for a while without selling. I say start the bidding at double your money and see where it goes

    HOLY MOLEY, If you do asphalt and smooth hard packed dirt only look at the Hoosier catalog and as mentioned, do NOT use those.
